Yes! still going, everything the same, except my Cholesterol is away too high. Is it family inherited probably somewhat.
However I have not had an easy time lately since my wife died. Slowly getting a bit better.
Now with my cholesterol being so high I am being advised to try pcsk9 inhibitor. Not sure I want to and after reading articles that older folks are better having high Cholesterol. For once not sure what to do. I'm still able to dance and doing all my walking and working in the garden etc. Yes weight is creeping up. Time to lose some weight for sure.
Also still following along with Pauling's therapy and not using a statin. Kind of hard to go against doctors and cardiologists, though I have always tried to listen to my own body. Thought I'd come back in and see what other comments might come forth. Regards nineboy.

Sorry to hear of your loss.
A good place to reality-check of some of those overprescribed medication I found is

Sorry not been here for some time. I have managed to lose ten pounds by eating more fresh veggies and continuing on with my dance and walking exercises. I am considering trying some Organic beet juice and wondering if there might be problems I might run into. I still take 150 mg Avapro for blood pressure and wonder if Beet juice might take my pressure too low. Plus of course all my Paulings recommended vitamins as well. Still on 25mg Metoporol x three a day as well. Still dancing very vigorously at times and finding my ten pounds off helping a little. 75 years old now and get puffed out at high speed but recover quickly. Not doing too badly and now a year since my wife died. Time sure doesn't slow down but I'm still shooting for 95 like my Mum did. Take care and good health to you all. nineboy.

Thanks for the report. Unfortunately I have no knowledge to answer your questions. I am happy you are still doing well - Thank you Linus Pauling!

I would just start with a low dose of beet juice, while monitoring blood pressure, and gradually increase the juice. That way you would recognize if the BP would get too low, and adjust or leave the dose of Avapro accordingly.

Thanks that's just what I'm trying. Taking it slow and seeing how it effects me. Nineboy.
